I have been working on this apron since Christmas. I finally got it done and wanted to post a picture of my apron crocheted from plarn (plastic bag yarn.) Someone asked for a pattern for an apron and I've had it one my to-do list for awhile. Happy to mark it off now.

Just sharing my crocheted bathmat rug. It's crocheted from recycled t-shirts cut into 1/4 inch wide strips to create t-yarn or tarn. This took about three whole t-shirts without side seams cut and stretched to curl the tarn. I wanted a half circle and had to frog this several times to get the shape right and for it to lay down flat. Here is the final photo. Now I can start using it today.

I love crocheting and crafting with recycled t-shirts. Here is my latest recon which was a pink t-shirt I got free at my thrift store because it had a stain. I cut it into a 1/4 inch wide continuous strip and then gently stretched it which causes the t-yarn to curl in on itself. I then crocheted this diagonal baby bib that was inspired by the diagonal dishcloth pattern. I used the hem for the two tie straps.

My camera makes this look red but it's really pink. Here is a picture of my t-yarn ball before I started.

Just wanted to share my bread bag coasters. I crocheted this from recycled bread bags. The thing I like most about using bread bags to craft is how colorful the finished projects are. It's trash to treasures!

I crocheted this granny square tote bag using plastic bags (plarn) for an upcoming charity auction. I always can get white bags but solid colors are hard to come by but this project only needs 4 unique colored bags to make the center motifs. I added a 4 inch wide center strip so the bag had some depth. Now I just hope that it goes over well at the auction.

I had a request for a turquoise plastic bag keeper. I wanted to make it from plastic bags but finding turquoise bags is nearly impossible so I checked my stash and found some turquoise colored fingering yarn. So what I did was put together plastic bags or plarn and the fingering yarn. Here is my result.

It's as close as I could come to turquoise and still make this handy bag holder from mostly recycled materials. I also used the fingering yarn for trim and the ties for my bag. It's 18 inches long and not only used up lots of plastic bags to crochet this but also can hold them for reuse in your kitchen.

I just wanted to share my latest t-yarn (tee-shirt yarn) project. I cut an old white tee-shirt into one long continuous strip about 1/4" wide. I then gently pulled on the strip to create what I call curled t-yarn. It works well to crochet this little baby bib. I added some pink cotton yarn as trim around the outside.

Here is my shell purse I crocheted from recycled plastic bags or plarn. I changed colors each round to make this a colorful purse. I added some store purchased purse handles that I got on clearance. I added the lining and made little holders for the purse handles to attach to the inside of the lining as shown in the 2nd picture.
